Five (5) Games Still M.I.A. This Generation

Atomiqon writes, "There are always games that we wait for, sometimes for years, in eager anticipation before they are finally released to the masses. Occasionally, after delays and long periods of media black-outs, some games get lost in the shuffle never to resurface. Below is a collection of games that seemed to have promise and appeal but were ultimately cancelled or have not been heard from in a long time."

You know what the tragedy of TLG is ? the fact that when it was announced it was easily the most anticipated game of the show the amount of awards that trailer won and all that pre-release buzz which was and still is astronomical, information on the game would regularly be updated.

But nothing information regarding this game has been so sparse in the 3 years it was announced, no screenshots no gameplay video's, developer diaries nothing, this isn't anything out the norm but for a game as high profile as TLG it's quite tragic.

This list needs to be longer there have been way too many M.I.A of anticipated games this gen.

i think we willhear some more news about ffvs 13 in 2013 i think last gurdian will launch on ps4 i think getaway 3 will not come out same goes for eight days eyeidentify i think thats vapoware now unles these games arrive on ps4

Will we ever get it and if so when and developed by who cause the original Dev team has left GSC Game World! Work was started and the game was reported to be really far along but then of course Sergi Grigoravich ran the company into the ground!

it looks like sony isn't bothering with VersusXIII, if it was a first party game like Killzone they do anything to help making the game...it's like Sony doesn't care about Japanese games anymore...VersusXIII and The Last Guardian will always be among my most anticipated games ALWAYS!

You're full of sh*t. Yeah cause third party company Square Enix can't get their priorities straight, Sony is to blame... /s

Squeenix is 100% at fault here. They don't need Sony funding or technical help. 1st Production Department is independent, even if party owned, and Nomura and team are not struggling, but keep getting drafted to other WOOOONDERFUL games like the Lightning saga, which is why progress has been so slow.

Puppeteer, Rain made by Studio Japan? What about the updates that tell us that The Last Guardian is a money sink, but they won't drop it and have brought over their Santa Monica experts to help Team Ico overcome technical obstacles? What about Polyphony Digital with their constant support for GT5, which after a number of updates is on another level from its 2010 debut? What about Ni no Kuni made by a third party LEVEL-5 & Ghibli, but wholly embraced by Sony? What about the Tales series? What about their support of Demon's Souls which had a great push across from Japan, before FROM decided to go multiplat? What about Yakuza? Gravity Rush? Soul Sacrifice? Tokyo Jungle? Persona 4? There is no lack of Japanese support, but in your head.

But let's be honest here, the world exists outside of Japan and it's great. We know Sony is under a heap of financial stress and Japanese games just don't sell well enough unless they're from well established series, which a LOT of them aren't. Western games sell better even if you consider them worse (which is outrageous since so many of them are equally as good), which is why Sony have more western developers. It's as simple as that.

I doubt if there's any game Agent coming to the PS3 there hasn't been any footage or talk in 4yrs about Agent & if there is still a Last Guardian & a FFvsXIII these will be the last games on the PS3 or they will be on the next generation Playstation released sometime in 2014,my opinion.
